Do not invest more money than you can afford to lose.
Alpari, a forex broker oriented towards Russian-speaking markets, said on Wednesday it has launched standard.mt5, a new type of live trading account for the MetaTrader 5 (MT5) trading platform. Clients can open such an account in US dollars (USD), Euro (EUR), or gold (GLD) with a minimum deposit of 100 base account currency units.
The accounts offer conditions similar to those of the rest of the accounts available with the broker – minimum lot size starting from 0.01 lots, spreads from 0.3 pips, and leverage of up to 100:1. Account holders are charged no additional commission and get quote accuracy to five decimal places.
PAMM Account managers can open pamm.standard.mt5 accounts at the same conditions as for opening pamm.standard.mt4 accounts.
The broker launched the standard.mt5 account with the same trading conditions in demo mode in late October.
In addition to the newly-added standard.mt5, Alpari also offers several other types of accounts for live trading. Traders who prefer to use the MT5 platform can choose from standard.mt5, ecn.mt5, pamm.ecn.mt5, and pamm.pro.standard.mt5 accounts. MetaTrader 4 (MT4) users can open nano.mt4, standard.mt4, ecn.mt4, pro.ecn.mt4, pamm.standard.mt4, pamm.ecn.mt4, or pamm.pro.ecn.mt4. For details on conditions please see below.
Also, the broker also offers an alpari.binary account for trading in binary option instruments.
Alpari is headquartered in Russia and has units regulated in Belize and registered in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines and Belarus. It is focused on Russia and the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), or the former Soviet countries. The broker was ranked as the largest forex broker by average monthly retail deposits and clients in 2015 by Interfax-Center for Economic Analysis (Interfax-CEA).
